WoW geeks: Did they push out the 2.01 patch today?

Can anyone verify that Blizz put the 2.01 patch live today? I'm talking about 41 point talent builds with my buds at work and jonesing to get home...

I don't recall the PTR realm going down, so I highly doubt it. PTRs typically stay up for 2 weeks or so and then once they go down, there's about a week inbetween that and the patch going live.

Nope, no patch 🙁

Btw, for the full alliteration effect, it's "CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL" 😛

I hope it never goes live in its current state.

I watched a video of 5 warlocks all with Felguards out in an arena. Effectively 10 vs. 5.

Guess who won.

Rhymes with Morlocks.

Im slightly bitter about it because my class isnt looking too great compared to what others are seeing. The damage output from casters is huge and the stamina just wont catch up with it until expansion.

Arena's are pretty cool though. Paladins dominate arena.

How have rogues faired so far in test? I have heard that even druids out damage them now.

Pre TBC content patch is coming out Dec 5. This will push the new honor system, new talents, rage normalization for warriors (/cry, playing a rogue right now, BE paladin when TBC is released, but I've always loved MMO warriors).

To rh71:

Rogues are looking pretty good right now. They've got a couple new tricks, most notably Cloak of Shadows. You should just check out the TBC website and look at the new talents.

Don't forget that he's referring to the non-BC content that's being released, where Cloak of Shadows is now a trainable skill. This isn't displayed on Blizzard's website; however, talent calculators that update themselves with current Beta changes show that CoS has been removed for Shadowstep.

Also, I really like some of the changes made in combat 😀.

yah, patch is coming next week, should be interesting, the scramble to fix my UI is always fun!

Warlocks are ungodly powerful, now and post-patch, in PvP!

Eh, Warlocks weren't too bad themselves... a Soul Link Warlock with a Felhunter (vs Caster) or a Succubus (vs Melee/Hunter) is just bad :x. Also Felhunters tend to work well against melee too because of Tainted Blood. You end up not wanting to hit the Felhunter or else you suffer losing a decent chunk of AP.
